Selangor under siege?

The Talam issue is still being spun this way and that while the issue concerning the PJ mayor is orchestrated to jam up the works and smooth-running of the state government’s daily administrative process.

What all these shenanigans mean is that the rakyat’s choice at the ballot box in March 2008 is not respected but treated as rubbish!

Enemy forces are not letting up their assault on the Pakatan-led state in their determination to see it fall in the coming general election.

“Defend till the end! Fight to the last!” was the angry response of this columnist’s uncle who is a Selangorian when he heard that Petaling Jaya mayor, Mohamad Roslan Sakiman, is to be transferred to another department.

This is despite the fact that PJ City councillor Derek Fernandez, who is also a lawyer by profession, remarked that the transfer decision by the PSD (Public Services Department) is illegal and ultra vires (as reported in a local English daily).

This columnist’s relatives who stay in Selangor are of the view that Barisan Nasional’s shenanigans have started again in Selangor.

Under heavy bombardment and continuous shelling, Selangor is bound to fall. This is called a “political siege”.

So far since the beginning of this year, the Pakatan Rakyat Selangor government had to contend with these four main issues: garbage collection, water, Talam and now the latest is the Petaling Jaya mayor issue.

There has been no let-up from the enemy forces since the previous general election in March 2008.

The first issue – garbage collection – had seen garbage trucks being blocked by hostile forces and broken furniture and tree branches being made into rubbish and dumped here and there in order to portray Selangor as a dirty state. When the garbage collection trucks are hindered, inevitably rubbish will start to pile up.

All this just because the Selangor government wants to save RM20 million from garbage collection services by awarding the contract to new contractors!

As for the water issue, a 40-second infomercial was last month filmed to show residents from a flat lining up to collect buckets of water while, at the same time, complaining about the so-called water shortage. It is a no-brainer as to who is behind this “entertaining movie”.

Diabolical forces

What all these shenanigans mean is that the rakyat’s choice at the ballot box in March 2008 is not respected but treated as rubbish!

The diabolical forces are hellbent on regaining Selangor by hook or by crook because in the view of these evil forces, might is definitely right.

There is only one thing that can be done by Pakatan in this matter and that is to hold the Selangor state election in May as the State Legislative Assembly will be automatically dissolved by then.
